Subject: Your Spelling

Written By: "Spike" NiConnell on 12/4/1999 at 6:26 a.m.

I really, really, really wish you had someone proofread this webpage for grammatical errors BEFORE you put it on the web! You have so many spelling errors that it ruined what would have been an otherwise pleasant experience. Your webpage is fun and interesting. I don't understand why you don't use spell check and/or a dictionary. I hope you take my advice and go through ALL of your work. No, I'm not an English teacher. I'm just someone who hates seeing awful grammar and misspellings. It makes YOU look ignorant.

Other than my big beef with the spelling/grammar, you have some pretty cool stuff here.

I really, really, really think you are rude with your comments. He created this site for us all to enjoy and you have to concentrate on grammar and spelling errors? I have an English degree and edit in my free time, but I do not check everytime I write something on the net. In fact I'm not checking right now, because I could care less as long as its coherent. Your comments are similiar to being invited over to someone's house and you say to them that they have tacky furniture. We are a guest on his website and to me its a privilege to be one of the many who post here. And by the way saying "really, really, really" is not very proper English whether writing or speaking, I should have you know.
